Cooking Safety
(cont.)
• Use dry, sturdy pot-holders. Damp pot-holders may cause burns from
steam. Dishtowels or other substitutes should NEVER be used as
potholders because they can trail across hot surface burners and ignite
or get caught on appliance parts.
• ALWAYS let quantities of hot fat used for deep fat frying cool before
attempting to move or handle.
• DO NOT let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in
or near the appliance, hood or vent fan. Clean hood frequently to
prevent grease from accumulating on hood or filter. When flaming
foods under the hood, turn the fan off.
• NEVER wear garments made of flammable material or loose fitting or
long-sleeved apparel while cooking. Clothing may ignite or catch utensil
handles. DO NOT drape towels or materials on oven door handles.
These items could ignite and cause burns.
• PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manufacturer's instructions.
If a plastic frozen food container and/or its cover distorts, warps, or is
otherwise damaged during cooking, immediately discard the food and
its container. The food could be contaminated.
• If you are "flaming" liquor or other spirits under an exhaust, TURN THE
FAN OFF. The draft could cause the flames to spread out of control.
• Once the unit has been installed as outlined in the Installation
Instructions, it is important that the fresh air supply is not obstructed.
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat
and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen
is well-ventilated. Keep natural venting holes open or install a
mechanical ventilation device. Prolonged or intensive use of the
appliance may call for additional (such as opening a window) or more
effective ventilation (such as increasing the level of a mechanical
ventilation if present).
Cookware Safety
• Use pans with flat bottoms and handles that are easily grasped and stay
cool. Avoid using unstable, warped, easily tipped or loose-handled
pans. Also avoid using pans, especially small pans, with heavy handles
as they could be unstable and easily tip. Pans that are heavy to move
when filled with food may also be hazardous.
• Be sure cookware is large enough to properly contain food and avoid
boil overs. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat frying. Be sure
pan will accommodate the volume of food that is to be added as well
as the bubble action of fat.
